Congratulations Gramma! My daughter is expecting her first grandchild- which will make me a greatgrandma!! It's hard knowing what patterns to make until you find out if it's a boy or a girl. I crochet and don't like green or yellow. Whatever yoy decide to do, you will love every minute you spend working on it.

Congratulations! Your secret is safe here.
Do use some of the Minkee - it is so soft and pretty. I made a couple with squares of Minkee alternated with a baby design of cotton. Worked out pretty well and they were so soft.

They've decided they are not going to find out the sex of the baby until it's born so I definitely can't do either blue or pink. I do machine embroidery and will be doing a Pooh quilt with embroidered squares, but I also want to do a generic baby quilt to give to her soon as a congratulations quilt. I'm so excited! Thanks for letting me share with all of you.

Gina ~ CONGRATULATIONS!! There is nothing more exciting than a grandbaby. I have 11 and each one was just as exciting as the first. I wish you and your daughter and SIL all the best on this new adventure for you all. There have been lots of good ideas posted and I am sure you will make just the right quilt for the grandbaby.
